The Dell XPS 420

The Dell XPS D420 is unique in that it has an embedded Windows Sideshow on the top of the case.

This can show you system information, access to your outlook calendar and some media controls.

You can access this when the machine is switched off.

Apple have pioneered and persevered with the all in one design in their iMac’s pictured below.

Now Dell want in on the action and have as yet unnamed XPS all-in-one product, pictured below.

The good news is the age of bland PC’s is over.
